Ephesians 4:1-3 "I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace."

Verse of the Week, 11/4/12 – 11/10/12

Psalm 7

“O Lord my God, in you do I take refuge;
save me from all my pursuers and deliver me,2 lest like a lion they tear my soul apart,
rending it in pieces, with none to deliver.

3 O Lord my God, if I have done this,
if there is wrong in my hands,4 if I have repaid my friend with evil
or plundered my enemy without cause,5 let the enemy pursue my soul and overtake it,
and let him trample my life to the ground
and lay my glory in the dust. Selah

6 Arise, O Lord, in your anger;
lift yourself up against the fury of my enemies;
awake for me; you have appointed a judgment.7 Let the assembly of the peoples be gathered about you;
over it return on high.

8 The Lord judges the peoples;
judge me, O Lord, according to my righteousness
and according to the integrity that is in me.9 Oh, let the evil of the wicked come to an end,
and may you establish the righteous—
you who test the minds and hearts,[c]
O righteous God!10 My shield is with God,
who saves the upright in heart.11 God is a righteous judge,
and a God who feels indignation every day.

12 If a man does not repent, God will whet his sword;
he has bent and readied his bow;13 he has prepared for him his deadly weapons,
making his arrows fiery shafts.14 Behold, the wicked man conceives evil
and is pregnant with mischief
and gives birth to lies.15 He makes a pit, digging it out,
and falls into the hole that he has made.16 His mischief returns upon his own head,
and on his own skull his violence descends.”

This one is one my my personal favorites. The Lord is truly on our side, His might and wisdom and love are true. His will be done now and forevermore. I surrender all, He will surely do it. Amen.
